8.3How to measure a time difference

Find the time ruler handle (the small white square in the bottom left corner of the scope view 14).

Drag the ruler handle to the right. A time ruler 15 (vertical broken line) will appear on the scope view. Release the ruler handle when the ruler is at the time you wish to use as the reference.

Drag the second white ruler handle to the right until its ruler is at the time to be measured.

Look at the ruler legend 13 (the small table that appears on the scope view). It should have a row marked by a small white square. The first two columns show the times of the two rulers, and the third column shows the time difference.

The frequency legend 10 shows 1/Δ, where Δ is the time difference.

You can use the same method to measure a frequency difference on a spectrum view, if this is available.

8.4How to move a view

You can easily drag a view 18 from one viewport 68 to another in a capture window 9 . This example shows a capture window with four viewports. The viewports contain scope views called "Scope 1" to "Scope 4". Suppose you wish to move the "Scope 4" view to the top left viewport.

1.Click on the name tab of the "Scope 4" view and hold the mouse button down.

2.Drag the mouse pointer to the new location next to the name tab of the "Scope 1" view.

3.Release the mouse button, and the view will move to the new location.
